Respect Composer.json is availaible

[generalredneck]

The package drupal/coder has a composer.json available in it's repository. They are also defined over on packagist.org. Since I'm defining

{
  "type": "composer",
  "url": "http://packagist.drupal-composer.org"
},

in my composer.json, I can't use the package from packagist.org. I've tried to do a couple of things as you can see over in this stackoverflow question to no avail. It's my opinion that since this packagist doesn't respect the composer.json, it's a bug as the author of the repository intended his package to be defined a specific way.

Problem is drupal/coder is still a drupal module and should live in the modules folder. The only way to achieve this is using "drupal-module" as type.

We have the same situation with a few other modules. For example Search API Solr and awssdk2.

I tried to alter the composer.json as little as possible. Do you have a specific issue with drupal/code from drupal-packagist?

[generalredneck]

@webflo Check this out. They are pretty much totally different. http://screencast.com/t/J7sX6WU0r.

Specifically the requires from the original package has been blown away.

Honestly I did overlook the fact that it was a drupal-module type on packagist.drupal-composer.org. something I take for granted already :)

[webflo]

Yeah you are right. I think we should merge the requirements from composer.json and info files on Drupal packagist.

I opened an issue to change the type

Fixed the bug a while ago.

config_devel has type: drupal-module in composer.json, but composer sees it as drupal-drush:

$ composer show drupal/config_devel | grep type
type     : drupal-drush

I have these repositories:

{
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "composer",
            "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/webflo/d8/master/packages.json"
        },
        {
            "type": "composer",
            "url": "https://packagist.drupal-composer.org"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "composer/installers": "^1.0.20",
        "drupal/core": "8.0.*",
        "drupal/drupal": "8.*",
        "drupal/token": "8.1.*@dev",
        "drush/drush": "~8"
    },
    "require-dev": {
        "drupal/devel": "8.1.*@dev",
        "drupal/config_devel": "8.*"
    },
